"I've always had a pretty clear idea of what I want to do．" says Mary， a middle school student who wants to become a director some day． You may not be as sure of your career （职业） as Mary． But you can start thinking about and planning for your future career．
The following article helps middle school students plan for careers．
Explore （探索） your interests
Many middle school students don't yet know what they want to do． But in fact， students may change their minds several times， perhaps even after they enter society． And some of tomorrow's careers might not exist （存在） today． Focusing on just one job in middle school isn't necessary． But looking into the kinds of careers you might like can help you succeed．
①
Understanding what you enjoy and what you're good at is the most important step in exploring careers． If you don't know what you want to do， you should ask yourself what you like to learn about． If you really like science， what do you enjoy about it ﹣ the lab work or the research？ It's important to think about what you like to do，because work will finally be a big part of your life．
Discover possible careers
Once you've thought about the subjects and activities you like best， the next step is to look for careers that put those interests to use． If you love sports， for example， you might consider a career as a P．E． teacher or a soccer coach． If you like English， a career as an English teacher， a translator or a travelling guide might be a good choice．
②
After discovering possible jobs， you'll want to learn more about them． Talking directly to workers on the phone， by email， or through online discussion can help you get information about what they do． Even meeting with them in person is helpful． First﹣hand information is necessary for you to find out if you'll really like a career．

An 11﹣year﹣old schoolboy Gabriel Muniz， who was born without feet， will fly from his home in Brazil to take part in the Spanish club's summer training camp． Although he is disabled， Muniz is one of the top players at the school and captain of his gym class． He can run， dribble （运球）， pass and strike the ball as well as any of his able﹣bodied teammates． He spends all his spare time on the football pitch．
His best friend Lucas Santos spoke about his abilities on a video for The Sun， "He is skillful， he goes after it， he is fearless and he knows how to organize plays． He also makes good passes．" Mum Sandra was thrilled that her son would achieve his dreams． She said， "He started walking before he was one． We would go after him， expecting him to keep falling， but he never fell．" Muniz's gym teacher added， "He is challenging the social norms （标准）． When he arrived there， no one believed in him．" But he showed to everyone that he could play as well as any other boy． So he was invited to go to Spain to show his talent．

Living places
The home of the elephant is in the deep forest． It is the largest of all land animals， and is found both in Asia and Africa． One of the main places in Asia where the elephant lives is the island of Ceylon． The huge forests on the island become the home of thousands of elephants． The trees grow thick and tall． They make many parts almost dark， while bright sunlight is above and around them．
Living habits
The elephant likes the deep part and the coolest places of the forest． There he will stand swinging his ears， to drive away the flies； or he will pull down a branch （树枝） from a tree to fan himself． He likes bathing， and to be near a lake or running water． There he takes in the water with his trunk， and spreads it all over his body．
Food
The elephant enjoys the fruits in the forest， and also the leaves of the trees． There is plenty of food for him in the forests， though he is not always happy with what he finds there．
Way of movement
When a group of elephants moves about in the forest， the oldest goes first． The young elephants and their mothers are in the middle， where they are safest． Then all move along with a great noise， the branches of the trees bending and breaking before them． Though the elephant is usually harmless， no one dares to attack （袭击） a group of them moving through the forest．
How people treat them
In Asia the elephant is trained to work． At one time the African elephant also was trained． Soldiers in ancient times often went to fight on the backs of African elephants． But now the elephant that lives in Africa is illegally （非法地） hunted mainly for its valuable ivory． In order to protect them， governments around the world have developed laws to stop this．

此篇为判断正（A）误（B）题
Sometimes people cry when they are sad． Other times people cry tears of joy． But your eyes make tears all the time， whether you are crying or not． Do you know the tears help keep your eyes healthy？ They keep your eyes from drying out． A special area of the eye drips （滴） all the time． It keeps the eye humid．
If you look in a mirror， you can see tiny holes in the corners of your eyes． Each hole leads to a small tube that runs to your nose． Tears run slowly into this tube drip by drip． Day and night the holes drain （流走） the tears away． If they didn't， you would always look as if you were crying．
If you begin to cry， there are many more tears． The holes can't drain all of them． Then extra tears run out onto your face．
Tears help keep eyes safe． If there is something harmful in the air， the eyes fill with tears． These tears coat your eyes． They keep the harmful air out．
Contact lenses （隐形眼镜） can make the eyes too dry． Some people have to add tears to their eyes．
They buy bottles of eye drops to keep their eyes wet．
（1）Eyes make tears no matter how people feel．
（2）When you cry， tears run into your nose or onto your face．
（3）If there is something harmful in the air， tears protect your eyes by covering them．
（4）Contact lenses make you have more tears in your eyes．
（5）Tears are harmful to your eyes．
Have you ever counted the number of digits （数字）in your mobile phone number？ Your number has 11 digits． You may sometimes find it hard to remember your number． That's because China has the longest mobile phone numbers in the world． Why is that？
The 11 digits can be divided into three parts． Each part has a different meaning． The first three numbers tell you which mobile phone service provider（提供者） you are using． For example， 135 is for China Mobile Communications Corporation and 188 is for China Unicom． The fourth to the seventh digits tell you where the number is registered （注册）． And the last four digits are random（随机的）．
The main reason for using 11 digits is that we have the largest population in the world． We once had 10numbers． But as our population grew， there were not enough numbers for us to use． So we began to use 11 digits starting from 1999． Eleven digits can be used to make tens of billions of mobile phone numbers． That's enough for each person to have seven or eight phone numbers to use in China．
And mobile phone numbers can be recycled． Usually， the service provider will reuse a canceled number after three to six months． If you call a number that you haven't contacted （联系）for a long time， you may find that its owner has changed．
Besides China， Britain and Japan also use 11﹣digit mobile phone numbers． But their numbers always start with 0． So they cannot create as many numbers as we can． Countries like the United States， Australia and India use phone numbers with 10digits． Canada's mobile phone numbers are perhaps the shortest in the world： they use seven digits．
（1）Is China the only country that uses 11﹣digit mobile phone numbers in the world？
（2）What can we know from the fourth to the seventh digits of a mobile phone number in China？
（3）Why does China use 1l digits for mobile phone numbers？
（4）When can a mobile phone number be recycled in China？
（5）Which country perhaps has the shortest mobile phone numbers in the world？
